Low flat malt flavour, with a clean hop complexity. Fruity finish, with a simple easy drinking and thinish mouthfeel for bruin. A bit dissapointing for me. Papsoe (14904), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 27, 2005 (Bottle 33 cl) Brown and surprisingly clear beer, huge, frothy head. Caramel and candy sugars in the flavour with some roasted malt. Could do with a bit more body - this is surprisingly almost watery for a Dubbel. 170398 Jukkabro (3008), Tampere, Finland
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 30, 2005 Dark brown, hints of red colored. Big beige head. Strong chocolate aroma, alcohol covered totally. Medium bodied. Flavor has also strong dominating chocolate, ends with some spices and crispy hoppy and carbonated bite. Thin alcohol comes up also in flavor. Nice brew, still somehow one dimensional for being dubbel. Choos (504), Taylors Hill, Australia

| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jan 12, 2005 Less than convincing on the nose with some metallic chocolate notes. Better in the mouth but feels quite dilute. No character to speak of......this doesn’t seem right. Bad bottle?
